So I'm not a big laws guy, but I'm pretty sure walking around with a giant scythe would be against some kind of law, despite that being a shitty kind of weapon.

Does it make a difference, not-getting-arrested-wise, if that scythe is a book at the time?

[He'd say something about wanting it a month or two ago, but he can't lift it when it's a scythe, so it's not that useful.]

Also Retrospec doesn't care what your legal address is, but I don't think that should surprise anyone.

It seems like it's an entire novel. 'Disqualified From Being Human' by my past self's pen name. I say 'seems like' because it's in Japanese, Tokyo dialect, and I'm really not good at reading that.

There are some people who are fluent in Japanese on the app if you'd like to ask for help with that. Don't know how personal the contents are though.

[ There was a certain word used when he spoke that has Matt's brow creased in concern. ]

I couldn't help noticing you said "my past self" just now. Do you believe that we were the people in the memories? Not many people do.

I'd like not to, because he's a dick. But I can't think he's just unrelated.

[He dyes his hair this guy's actual hair color, for goodness' sakes.]

[ Matt can barely hold back a laugh. That hadn't been the type of answer he was expecting but fair enough! ]

I'm sure Retrospec knows exactly what the connection is and just refuses to tell us.

I hope it's not so literal. I only have one memory but it didn't leave the greatest impression of the man on the other end, if he is or ever was real.

Only one thing to do. We have to make sure we don't act like dicks.

[voice]

[thesettingsun]

Exactly. Having hallucinomemories of a douchebag doesn't give you an excuse to act like a douchebag.

[No matter what the connection is, you still have to behave yourself.]

[blessmefather]

Even if it turns out we really were them, acting like them is optional. And I'd prefer to keep my friends and good reputation.

[voice]

[thesettingsun]

I'd prefer to have self-respect and be a decent person.

[And also have friends.]

[blessmefather]

Let's hope that in a year we'll still find this agreement agreeable.

[ Because really, who knew what Retrsopec would do to mess with their judgement? ]

Good luck with practice. Stay safe.

[voice]

[thesettingsun]

You too. I hope I don't need to ask for your advice again, either.

[No offense.]
